I have absolutely tons of old DOS games backed up on CD's, back in the day we used to swap floppies and CD's with reckless abandon.

But if you want to count the games I actually paid for, here is a list of DOS games I bought when I was a kid. I still have the boxes for the majority of these:

Sam and Max Hit the Road
Day of the Tentacle
X-wing floppy
Tie Fighter floppy
Colonization
Civilization 1 & 2
Rebel Assault
Return to Zork
Halloween Harry (registered, Mannaccom box)
Rise of the Triad (registered, FormGen box)
Railroad Tycoon
Transport Tycoon, original and deluxe
Pirates! Gold
Kings Quest 6
Incredible Machine
Lords of the Realm 2
Wing Commander 1&2

plus, of course countless shareware floppies/CD's.

I must confess I didn't actually play DOOM until about 98 or so when I got a copy on a shareware CD. I was a Wolf3d / Blake Stone diehard 😀

Dunno how many games I got in total. I suppose it's not a VERY big collection but I got at least a couple cardboard boxes filled with them. Though I got many games double, triple or even 5-6 times (Total Annihilation! 😁)
